Will there be surprises in Mitchell's report today?

:up

I'm a little worried, though, based on other things that have come out in the last couple years, that my O's will get hit hard.... I'll have a really hard time stomaching that, on top of all of the losing lately.


I doubt the O's will get hit hard. Gibbons sucks even with the juice, and Palmeiro was done anyway when it all came out. Who would be left?
 
Here's a preliminary list that may or may not be entirely correct:


is this the list? Is This The List Of Players Mentioned?

OK, let's do a little test of the Internets today: In the last hour, we have been forwarded a list of players mentioned in the Mitchell Report by about 25 different people. Is this list substantiated? No. Is it from an MLB official? No. Do we have any reason to believe it's anything but random bunk? No. But it's what's making the rounds today, and we're less than three hours away, and if the list is wrong, we'll know real soon.
But, if you're curious, here's the list of players supposedly mentioned in the report, according to just about every email we've received. It could very likely be one of those Web urban legends that somehow got around, like when everyone thought Scott Baio was dead. It probably is, actually. (We mean, come on: The list has Rich Garces on it.) We'll know soon enough, but, for now, for "fun" ... After the jump.
(UPDATE: A source inside baseball says this list is "not entirely accurate." Emphasis ours.)
(SECOND UPDATE: WNBC apparently has the same list, some names of which have been disputed by baseball. But not all. And less than two hours to go!)

There are certainly many more names that won't get mentioned. This is just not that big a deal. It is the steroid era, it's a black eye on baseball but let's move on and put a stop to use of PED's. It's a disappointment to have some of our favorite players on the list ( varitek should have used more) but it's not the end of the world.
 
Its funny. I have yet to hear Barry Bonds name mentioned.


Correction. I do see his name on the list.
 
That is some list of players. I see some people who at one time or another played for the Reds.

Not a surprise that Griffey Jr wasn't on the list. He has never looked big enough to look like he even lifted weights.

There are quite a few names on that list with Baltimore ties... it's just all the Palmeiro, Tejada, Gibbons, etc and the "B12 shot" stuff from a couple years ago.... I don't know, I just have a feeling it's going to be bad for them.
 
Tejada, Justice and more Yankees players are named here:

SI.com - MLB - Jon Heyman: Tejada, Roberts, Clemens in Mitchell Report - Thursday December 13, 2007 1:14PM

"Former American League MVP Miguel Tejada is mentioned in the Mitchell Report, due to be released by 2 p.m. on Thursday afternoon, SI.com has learned.

Seven-time Cy Young winner Roger Clemens, plus Andy Pettitte, who just re-signed with the Yankees, are in the steroids reports, SI.com has confirmed, as are ex-Yankees Mike Stanton, Chuck Knoblauch and Jason Grimsley.

Orioles second baseman Brian Roberts also is in the report, as is Yankees and Braves postseason hero David Justice."

If I don't see at least one Boston player there, I question this report.:)
 
brian roberts, sheffield, matt franco, rondell white, R. clement. andy pettite, chuck knockblack, david justice, allen hill, m vaughn danny daingel ,
 

Bonds tipped off

WHo's doing play by play on tonight's NFL game?
